Comprehensive Surgical Care for Pets

Our surgery department is designed to support both routine and complex cases, ensuring pets receive the most advanced care available in the Roanoke area. With a board-certified surgeon on staff and on call for emergencies, we provide a level of continuity and capability that is rare in emergency settings.

 

Seamless Transfer from ER to Surgery

One of the greatest advantages of EVSSR is the ease of transitioning from emergency care to surgical intervention when needed. Pets who arrive through our ER and require surgery benefit from:

· Immediate evaluation by our emergency team

· Rapid consultation with our board-certified surgeon

· No need for transport to another facility

· Continuous monitoring and care from the same medical team

· Faster stabilization and surgical readiness

This continuity ensures safer, more efficient care—especially in critical situations where time matters.
